The World’s Only Corn Palace

Not that that says much. I thought I could resist, but after seeing the 2,354,765th sign on the highway, I caved. I also remember that a former colleague of mine at Fidelity Investments had an ad for the palace hanging above his desk. It was kind of there as a joke. But it also kind of wasn’t. I went for you, Eric!

There really wasn’t much of anything inside. There was a guy dressed in a full body ear of corn costume who amused himself by sneaking up behind visitors and saying, “Well, hello!” Not surprisingly, every person was startled, and he would laugh and then awkwardly apologize.
